I went to Satoshi Roundtable in Dubai recently & a highlight of the trip was getting to finally meet Adam Back.
I've never met Dr Back before, although I've interacted with him online quite a bit - he was just like you'd expect him to be - thoughtful, brilliant and tuned in.
Satoshi Roundtable has turned into a bit of a "crypto" event over the last few years, with the who's who of shitcoiners attending the event and focusing conversations on bubble bullshit like NFTs, web3 and DeFi nonsense ... but Bruce has done a great job of trying to prioritize Bitcoin and Bitcoiners at the event.
For that reason, a good contingent of Bitcoiners still go to SRT.
There was an opening ceremony at the event where hundreds of industry participants were brainstorming on the most interesting topics to discuss at the event.
Bruce had a "VIP" table in the center with some esteemed guests which included some government officials, royal family members and Adam Back :)
Aside from hanging out poolside and during roundtable sessions with Dr Back, I got to spend some time playing pickleball and hanging out in the hot tub with Jameson Lopp, discussing the Casa adding ETH situation among other things.
I also shared a drive back from Abu Dhabi with Austin Alexander and we got into a heated debate over bitcoin scaling & bitcoin culture and then getting in a good workout at the resort gym the next morning.
I figured that this was a great time to get a podcast done with 3 folks who I respect to discuss some important topics like bitcoin scaling, sidechains, and bitcoin culture.
Hope you enjoy the convo.
If you get any value out of my podcast, please leave me a fun review at ratethispodcast.com/bitcoin and I'll read it on the next episode!
